Watch the BMW X5 M run to 150 mph (240 km/h)

The new X5 M is powered by a reworked M TwinPower Turbo engine, a V8 that provides more power and torque, and better power delivery. The peak output of the new M turbocharged engine is 567 hp, three percent higher than that of its predecessor and is available between 6,000 and 6,500 rpm. At the same time, the engine’s peak torque has been boosted by around 10 percent to 553 lb-ft, which can be enjoyed across an extremely broad rev band – from 2,200 to 5,000 rpm. To see how the X5 M runs to its speed limit, it is taken to a drag strip for some straight line acceleration. Skip over to 3 minutes in to see the Launch Control function in the X5 M.
